Techni Waterjet, Micro Waterjet Collaborate on Cutting System
Micro’s cutting machine uses a pump from Techni promoting high accuracy.
Techni Waterjet (Lenexa, Kansas) and Micro Waterjet LLC (Huntersville, North Carolina) have announced that they will be collaborating on a high-precision micro waterjet system. The cutting machine will use Techni Waterjet’s Quantum NXT electric servo pump.
Micro Waterjet will set up a demonstration machine in Techni Waterjet’s Advanced Applications Lab in Lenexa, Kansas. The new micro waterjet C4 is said to be capable of achieving cutting accuracy of ±0.01 mm and positioning accuracy of ±0.003 mm.
“Techni’s ESP pump is a natural fit for the precision Micro Waterjet’s C4 and F4 machines,” says Techni Sales Manager Jim Fields.
